Photo Finish introduces an innovative automatic timing system designed to precisely measure athletic performance across a range of sports including track and field, soccer, American football, basketball, cycling, and many more!

Time your training sessions effectively using your smartphone! By detecting your chest while passing the camera, we ensure accurate times without false triggers from arms or thighs like with laser timing. This high accuracy enables you to make data-driven decisions to track progress, identify areas for improvement, and set realistic goals to optimize performance.

Create sessions with a Photo Finish pro subscription and invite your fellow athletes to join for free in the multi-mode for multiple measurement lines. Here are a few examples, but feel free to get creative with the five start types to time your activities:

- The Flying Start setting allows your max velocity to be timed in a flying 30-meter sprint for example. Or to see if you can maintain your top speed when approaching the stepstone before launching yourself for the long jump. Compare your past sprints to see how you’re progressing!

- With the Ready, Set, GO Start you can time three valuable aspects of sprinting in one go: Your reaction time out of the blocks, 10-meter drive, and 60-meter max velocity.

- The Touch Start can be used to measure your 150 meters to build volume.

Dive into the history section to see your data come to life. Export your results in CSV format to uncover trends, highlight consistent improvements, or spot areas of stagnation. Use these insights to fine-tune your workouts, whether you're aiming to boost speed, enhance endurance, or perfect your technique.

Besides functioning as a sprint timer, the app also allows you to time your agility drills across various sports, such as American football, soccer, basketball, and more. Imagine polishing your technique under time pressure, building greater confidence in your abilities.
Coaches can add the participating athletes in the automatic series mode. Once set, there's no need to interact with the phones during training. Voice commands announce the next athlete, and all performances are recorded hands-free!

Photo Finish is designed for user-friendliness and effortless setup. Devices connect and synchronize via Bluetooth and subsequently share their timing data over the internet, ensuring limitless transmission range.

We know you'll do anything to reach your peak performance. That's why we prioritize reliability and continuous updates to ensure our app always delivers.
